4. # Conversion of agricultural land
Developments in the Industrial and allied
Sectors.
Real estate business.
Increased Sand mining.

5. Rock quarrying for construction
activities
Brick manufacturing in agricultural
lands
Excess use of water resources

6. # IMPROPER HANDLING OF WASTES.
Handling and disposal of
solid wastes
Composting and Open
Burning
Leaching of waste decay
into water bodies.

7. Soil contamination
Disposal of Plastic
bags
Garbage dumping

8. # Climate change effects.
• Loss of many plant species.
• Vehicular And Industrial pollution.
Mangifera casturiSaint Helena olive

9. Increase in global warming gases
•Flooding and Water Logging.
Heavy increase
in temperature
during summer
Heavy cold
during winter
Heavy Rain
•A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land
that is usually dry.
•Waterlogging refers to the saturation of soil with
water.

10. Pollution of water bodies.
Lack of conservation activity on water
resources1.
Dumping of waste into water bodies leads to
water pollution and loss of animals and
plants.2.
Heavy sedimentation

11. Unauthorized conversion of water bodies

12. Animal and human conflict.
1. Deforestion :
Deforestation Driven by Urban Population
Growth and Agricultural Trade in the Twenty-
First Century
2. Depletion of grazing lands :
One indicator of overgrazing is that
the animals run short of pasture

13. 3. Water scarcity :
•Water scarcity is the lack of sufficient
available waterresources to meet the
demands of water usage within a region.
•More than 1.2 billion people lack access
to clean drinking water.
4. Increased human activity :
Humans have destroyed a tenth
of Earth’s remaining wilderness in
the last 25 years

14. 5. Conversion of forest adjacent areas into
agricultural lands
One of the consequences of deforestation is
a loss of biodiversity. Deforestation
also increases greenhouse gas
emissions, disrupts the water cycle, increases
soil erosion and decreases the natural beauty of
an area .
6. Cell phone towers :
Two hundred forty one bird species are
at mortality risk from both tower
collisions and from exposure to the
radiation towers emit.

15.  Damages to the biodiversity reflects in
climate changes.
 Establishing biodiversity parks, hot spots
and
protected areas in the vicinity of urban
areas.
 Ban of cell phone towers nearby parks
and
protected areas
 Public awareness on conservation of
biodiversity
